People invariably love mystery, especially 'thoughtful' people, if you will. His films (except for Spartacus) are elaborate riddles. The overt narrative is one thing, but there are always many unspoken and implied themes. He tickles our collective unconscious...That is where his magnetic and enigmatic appeal lies.

Kubrick is the best. I never liked horror movies, i think they are kinda dumb, but The Shining is the one and only horror film i love. I always though that the vietnamise war movies are dumb (i like the old WW2 Movies) cause it says that the big USA came to help and the soldiers are the big heroes. Kubrick showed its opposite with FMJ, when they've asked Animal Mother why they are in vietnam he couldnt answear cause he doesnt knew, and thats the truth.

his moves were so real.. in full metal jacket it seems every reaction, emotion, feeling is shot so correctly. long consistent shots that make u feel like u are there.. in full metal jacket u feel like are are there with the troops

I was amazed that Stanley only talked to Steven Spielberg and George Lucas for the last 15 years of his life. HE would ask George about ILM and how far they could come in making a real robot for A.I. AND Steven and him would always talk about A.I. and other projects.

Two completely different directors.

I am not a film director, but I am a writer. Stanley Kubrick is a huge inspiration to me. The way he approached his films and his attention to detail is how I approach not only my writing, but almost all other of my artistic endeavors. I would love to direct a film one day, though.

Stanley Kubrick made visual poetry. Absolutely Beautiful.

kubrick deserves a lifetime achievement award from the oscars. unless he already has one. does he?

you know, in a way i agree but at the same time, truly dedicated directors tend to put a lot of time and effort in their crafts, which is why you see kubrick films less frequently, but the film is better and timeless because of it. granted if he was still alive, i'd like to have seen another film or two by him.
